The stronger Charlie was, the more determined and firm he was in his judgment that Charlie had Ten Thousand Armies to back him up, and that was the reason why Charlie dared to be so arrogant. The more it was so, the more he was afraid that Charlie would really get angry. Otherwise, if Charlie were to really ask Ten Thousand Armies to deal with him, he would not be able to stand up to it at all.So, he hurriedly said, “Mr. Wade, it was my attitude that was problematic just now. I apologize to you. I also hope that you will be magnanimous and that you will not hold it against me…”Olivia did not expect that her father would give in to Charlie, and she blurted out, “Dad! How could you apologize to him?!”Richard reprimanded her nonchalantly, “Shut up!”Olivia did not expect her father’s attitude to change so quickly. She was just about to ask what was going on when Aman, who was next to Richard, had already begun slapping himself on his left and right cheeks. Charlie really scared

At this moment, Richard had already regarded Charlie as the God of Plague because of his own thoughts in his inner brain.Right now, he only wanted to stabilize the current situation and avoid having any new conflicts with Charlie. So, he secretly gave Olivia a warning look before he spoke up and asked Charlie, “Mr. Wade, shall we officially begin, then?”Charlie nodded slightly without speaking.Richard heaved a sigh of relief. It was only then that he hurriedly announced that this pre-wedding banquet for family and friends had officially begun.During the dinner, Richard put down his previous so-called royal stature, and he frequently toasted Charlie, and his expression and speech were extremely respectful.Olivia really did not understand what was going on and so, she came up with an excuse to call her father aside as she asked him in a low voice, “Dad, what’s wrong with you today? Why are you being so humble in front of Charlie?”Richard warned, “I’m afraid that the Wade fa

In the blink of an eye, five people had raised their hands.Walliot deliberately did not raise his hand immediately but instead, he waited until these people had eagerly come forward before saying, “Count me in too, then.”After he was done speaking, he looked at Charlie, and just as he was wondering what he should say to trick Charlie into playing the game, Charlie then took the initiative to raise his hand and said, “I also like to play Texas Hold’em Poker. Count me in.”Walliot was so excited that he almost cheered out loud.‘I was just trying to find an entry point to invite Charlie to join in this ruse as naturally as I possibly could, but I really did not expect Charlie to jump into it on his own.’‘Perfect!’After that, Walliot pretended to be polite as he said, “Mr. Wade, I really did not expect that you would like to play Texas Hold’em Poker too. In that case, we should play two rounds together for entertainment purposes, then.”Charlie also had a friendly expression on

Since the poker game had been brought up at the very last minute and the person who had suggested playing the card game had voluntarily given up his direct participation in the game, even volunteering to be the croupier, aside from Charlie and Olivia, the several other participants did not think about the aspect of cheating at all. Moreover, since the venue was the Northern European royal family’s own poker room and the playing cards were a brand-new and unopened product from the poker room’s inventory, no one had any doubts at all.In truth, there were actually no problems with the playing cards at all. The real problem was with the croupier.He was originally an expert in gambling, and he had made quite a fortune by gambling. Even if he were to play cards with professionals, he could cheat unnoticed, let alone when he was facing a group of amateur players.This person had very fast hands, very good memory, and excellent finger dexterity. It could be comparable to a close-range m

Charlie did not pay any attention to what cards he was actually dealt with, but as soon as the card came to him, he would immediately put a one-million-euro chip in. After a few rounds, Charlie then threw in four-million-euro chips, but it actually represented seventy million euros in total. The others were unable to adapt to the large bet for a while and so, they simply folded and watched the game.Charlie and Walliot were the only ones left at the table. Immediately afterward, the croupier spoke up and said, “Please show your cards!” Charlie flipped his bottom card over immediately, and his cards only consisted of a pair and three other miscellaneous cards. This was considered a very small hand in Texas Hold’em Poker. As for Walliot, he had a good hand in the first game. He had four Jacks and a miscellaneous card, which was a much bigger hand compared to Charlie. The croupier immediately announced, “Mr. Walliot wins this round.”Walliot was a little excited as he gathered

When Walliot saw that Charlie was a little angry, he was immediately nervous, and he hurriedly explained, “Mr. Wade, don’t get me wrong. I did not mean that…”As he spoke, Walliot then said, “I thought that our rules were still the same set of rules and that we would settle and pay up as soon as we lost one hundred million euros. But since you have already said so, I will not continue talking nonsense anymore. We will just settle and pay up when we lose one billion euros then, okay? If we do not lose up to one billion euros at the end of the game, we will just settle and pay up according to the amount that we have lost, then. What do you think?”Charlie nodded with satisfaction and smiled as he said, “That’s right! This is how a man should fucking talk! Otherwise, I would have thought that you were the kind of pathetic and poor person who has never seen money before and cannot wait to put the money in your pocket as soon as you’ve won just a little money.”As he spoke of this, Charl

Charlie played steadily, and he put in another five million chips, leaving only two million chips on hand.Walliot wanted to force Charlie to hurry up and pay out a sum of money first and so, he immediately threw in ten million chips and spoke up, “Mr. Wade, I’ll bet one hundred million euros. You seem to be running out of chips already.”Charlie shrugged, and he threw his bunch of miscellaneous cards aside directly as he said, “I fold.”There was an uproar in the crowd. “He’s folding just like that?”“He has already bet one or two hundred million euros, but he is folding just like that?! Does this guy know how to play or not?”“If I would have known that he’s so stupid, I would have just played against him just now! I wouldn’t have let Walliot take all the money, then!” Walliot was about to laugh out happily at this moment, and he almost could not control his emotions anymore. So, after calming himself down for a long time, he finally said, “Mr. Wade, you don’t have any more

The game that followed immediately had a new meaning now.When the cards were dealt, Charlie quickly received three Aces, two of which were on the bright side.As for Walliot, his cards were even more impressive. His cards were 10, J, Q, K, and they were all spades. When Walliot saw these cards, he instantly knew in his heart that the croupier should be planning to give him a flush while he gave Charlie four Aces.The biggest card in Texas Hold’em poker was the straight flush which would kill all other card combinations.Charlie had already exposed two of his best cards which were two Aces at this point, and the best combination of cards that he could possibly obtain would also be just four Aces.Even if Charlie had four Aces, it would be impossible for him to win a straight flush. Therefore, Walliot had no doubt that Charlie would lose this game and that he would win. However, it seemed as though Charlie did not believe in evil, and after a few rounds of betting, Charlie be

Jacob wasn't really concerned with the invitation. He wouldn't be going anyway, and he wouldn't tell Elaine about it.Right now, he had a question.After hanging up on Walker, he asked curiously, "A designated driver would be just a few dozen bucks at most. Why get Walker?"Mr. Bay sighed meaningfully. "Jacob, my boy—it's not just my job description you must handle when you succeed me. You must understand the unspoken rules of the workplace as well as interpersonal relationships."Raising his right index finger, he chuckled, "Earning the loyalty of subordinates is a science. But it has to be a carrot and stick—never just the carrot, while offering them chances to be of service.""Take Walker, for example. As his boss, buying him lunch is 5 points. Ask for a favor, but it's 50 points instead!""As a leader, you should also make sure to give requests that are reasonable. That way, they will consider you to be their ally, or soon enough.""People are strange that way—psychology sim

Jacob certainly agreed with Mr. Bay. When going to a dinner where alcohol would be involved, having a designated driver would be most convenient.Still, Jacob had another plan in mind.Since he had a Cullinan and this was the perfect chance to show off, it would kill him not to drive."Actually, we should go on our own," Jacob told Mr. Bay right then. "We will take my car and get a designated driver to take us home. We can hang out in the backseat to chat—I mean, you'd be in a bad mood if you get a bad driver, bringing a car that stinks of tobacco. You know how bad it can get."Mr. Bay nodded cheerfully. "Alright! I'm counting on you!""Oh, it's only right!"Coming to an agreement, they hurried outside, with Jacob driving and Mr. Bay riding shotgun.They were having a pleasant conversation when Jacob suddenly got a call from Walker, who was his sub at Senior University.Answering with the in-car Bluetooth system, he said, "Hey, Walker. What's up?""Mr. Wilson! I'm done with cl

As such, Albert did not hesitate to say right then, "Don't worry, Mr. Wilson—since they are your friends, I will offer the half-price rebate as you've suggested! When the guests take their seats, I'll personally deliver a couple of nice bottles over as a token of my sincerity!"Oskia truly sets the bar when it comes to being humanistic.There were times when one must show due respect, but not too much either in case it changed the status quo.It was just like a couple eating out with a third-wheel.Even if the third-wheel was better off and happily took the check as the girl watched, there would inevitably be competitiveness. The generosity might even lead to the girl getting attracted to the third-wheel.As such, since Jacob was actually secondary in importance at the event, Albert would have to make sure not to rain on the host's parade while showing his respects to Jacob. Otherwise, the host may hold a grudge against Jacob even if everything was free of charge.And when it cam

Jacob put a hand on his chest. "Don't worry—everything is going to be fine when my son-in-law takes the stage."As soon as he finished speaking, an unknown number called his phone.He answered, hearing a familiar voice he couldn't quite place, "Good afternoon. Am I speaking to Mr. Jacob Wilson?""Yes. May I ask who I am speaking to?""Albert Rhodes, owner of Heaven Springs at your service. Would you happen to remember me?"Hearing that, Jacob turned on the speaker excitedly as he continued, "Oh, yes, Don Albert! Of course I remember!"Mr. Bay's eyes lit up when he heard Albert announce himself, and he mouthed, "Is that really Don Albert?!"Jacob nodded repeatedly, his vanity burgeoning.Mr. Bay was naturally thrilled too, and he leaned closer to listen just as Albert spoke humbly, "If it's alright with you, Mr. Wilson, please don't address me as Don Albert. It's just a title some brats came up with—you are Master Wade's father-in-law, which means you have seniority over me. So,

Mr. Bay was overjoyed, seeing how quickly Jacob agreed to it. "Thanks, Jacob! I owe you!" He exclaimed, but soon added, "It's past four now, and that bunch like to fraternize in the room before they eat. Could you get the room soon? I think they'll be arriving soon."Then, he moved closer to add quietly, "If you can get a Diamond Room like before, I will bring you along. I'm not going to lie, these are officials with decision-making authority. Being friends with them might propel us to new heights!"Jacob already knew that Mr. Bay was sucking up to his friend, otherwise, he wouldn't be so concerned when the dinner was organized by said friend. Understanding that the friend must be important too, Jacob was at once buoyed.After all, he had presumed that becoming vice president was the most he could achieve.Now, if he could attend that dinner with Mr. Bay and establish a good relationship with those bigwigs, he would have his turn when Mr. Bay got promoted too.With that in min

Reservations in Heaven Springs had always been unpredictable, and most rooms weren't open to the general public—even if said rooms were vacant for the night.It was not as if Albert Rhodes didn't want to make money when he built Heaven Springs. He simply didn't do it solely for profit, but only mostly for social events and posturing.Back when he was a humbler member of society, he realized that many bigwigs and even his fellows cared for pride a lot. Be it food, liquor, or even simply everyday consumption, they always strove for the best and the most expensive.That was why polite society valued their privacy and established their respective social circles, which was why Heaven Springs ensured that everything was first-rate: atmosphere, service, food, and clientele.Just like how bigwigs wouldn't dine at the same table as their goons, said goons wouldn't eat at the fancy places those bigwigs frequented even if they had money, as it may appear as if they were overstepping.That wa

As such, intent on keeping up his pretense, Jacob answered the phone, "Looking for me, Matilda?""Uh-huh," Matilda replied, and asked, "You didn't show up at Senior University, and your sub is saying you probably won't be coming for a while? Is that true?""Oh—right, that," Jacob quickly said. "Well, it's true—the gist of it is that the Association is getting busy with a project. As the vice president, I probably shouldn't be staying at Senior University all the time, right?""Heck, Mr. Bay called me last minute, telling me how busy we're going to be and that I was needed. That's why I had to go back, but I will head over to campus again when I have the time."Matilda knew right then that those were all excuses.However, she did not expose Jacob, instead asking, "Well, when are you free? So that I can send you my wedding invitation?""Oh, the invitation?" Jacob quickly chuckled. "You really didn't have to come to me—just pass it to Walker, my sub lecturer. He can pass it to me wh

The next afternoon, there was a sudden change of lecturers for the calligraphy class.Despite being the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, Jacob never showed up, instead getting a substitute instructor to replace him.Matilda had come with the invitation Yolden had written for Jacob, but seeing that Jacob wasn't at the lecture hall, she waited until the class was over to ask the sub, "Excuse me, can I ask why Mr. Wilson wasn't teaching this class?""He's busy at the association," the sub replied. "So, I'm taking over his class."Curious, Matilda pressed, "Then, would you happen to know when he will be coming?""Probably not for a while," the sub replied. "He delegated other classes to me as well, telling me that I could just stick to the PowerPoint slides."Then, he asked, "Do you have business with Mr. Wilson?"Matilda nodded. "Yes, but I can call him myself. Thank you."Leaving the lecture hall, Matilda called Jacob, who was goofing off in his office

On the other end, Matilda was left staring at Jacob's reply in confusion.She had presumed that Jacob would understand when she mentioned inviting his whole family that he should be coming up with an excuse to skip attending her wedding.That was the most ideal solution.As such, she was shocked that instead of playing along, Jacob's reply was short and blunt.[No problem. The four of us will be there!]Perplexed, Matilda was left wondering what Jacob meant. Was he really going to attend her wedding with Elaine?The thought left Matilda frowning as she absolutely didn't want to see Elaine—especially not at her own wedding.Yolden was writing an invitation when he saw the somber look on her face, and he couldn't help asking, "Is there a problem?""Jacob replied," Matilda admitted. "And he's saying that he will bring his whole family.""Really?" Yolden was confused too, as he was hardly as eccentric as Jacob. "But he's afraid of his wife and shouldn't be telling her at all…
